You might not think a vodka shot with sour mix and pineapple juice would taste like an orange tic tac, but it's weirdly on target. Knock one back and you'll see straight away. Knock two back and you may be seeing double.

common recipe questions


What type of vodka is best for this recipe?

Any standard or high-quality vodka will work well. Flavored vodka can be used for a different flavor.

Can I make this drink without sour mix?

Not really, but you can make a homemade sour mix using equal parts lemon juice and simple syrup.

Do I have to use pineapple juice?

The pineapple juice adds the unique flavor twist that makes it taste like a tic tac, but you can experiment with orange juice for a different flavor.

Can this drink be made in a larger batch or made ahead of time?

You can combine the ingredients in a pitcher and chill in the refrigerator for a few hours instead of using a shaker to mix the drink. When ready to serve just pour into shot glasses.

Is there a non-alcoholic version of this drink?

Replace the vodka with sparkling water for a non-alcoholic version.

How long should I shake the mixture for?

Shake for about 10-15 seconds or until the outside of the shaker feels cold.

What's the best way to serve this drink?

Serve immediately after shaking in chilled shot glasses.

  1. broccoli REVIEW:

    I couldn't figure out how sour mix would taste like orange tic tacs but it did with the pineapple for some reason. Pretty good and potent.
